Default What is considered the Billy Martin Rookie?

Posted By: jeffdrum

I guess I have missed this part. Can you show me any of the major auction houses who refer to any of the 4 1933 Goudey Ruth cards as a "Rookie" in any of their auction listings? Maybe they have, but I have not seen it. Take the Baltimore News Ruth "Schedule Card" for an example. You can argue that it isn't a rookie because it's a minor league issue, or it's not a rookie because it's not a "card", or that's it's not a "rookie" because it wasn't nationally distributed. What you can't argue is that most any collector would rather have it than a 1933 Goudey "rookie." All of course is MHO.
